"I think you can kind of see his commitment to football this season just by his actions with respect to you guys and not wanting to talk to the media," said McNabb's agent Fletcher Smith. "He's driven by his desire to win a Super Bowl here."

When the first practice begins on Monday at Leigh University, the Eagles will begin to transition after undergoing a significant roster overhaul. Some of the new players could provide McNabb with better pass protection and better targets at receiver.

In June, the Eagles awarded McNabb at least an additional $5.3 million over the remaining two years of his contract, after he led the Eagles to their fifth NFC Championship game in eight seasons. "Donovan's career is not over. He's got a lot of juice in the tank," Coach Andy Reid told the Philadelphia Inquirer.
